Thanks!
The integration with the Movie Library alone is something I think a LOT of people will be very happy with. Going to thegreenbutton the let the world know right now! AWESOME

Unfortunately, the 160 patch broke Media Centre integration for me. Or more precisely, it broke the ability to exit the TMT component and return to Media Centre proper. The first time after every reboot works, but thereafter Media Centre crashes each time you try to exit TMT.
This has happened on both Win7 RC1 and Vista. I guess it's back to 140 for me.
EDITED to add: Nevermind, it was a problem with UltraMon, which I use to automatically change the primary monitor when using the TV instead of the computer monitor. It was somehow adversely affecting this version of TMT in ways that it didn't with previous versions.

Thank You. Everything is running very smooth - just think ATI 9.8 is lacking. Very nice on Nvidia.

didn't fix the missing icons on splash bug... I had to get the update directly from arcsoft to do that... note this is a direct upgrade from 120 to 160 with Sim HD loaded.. win 7 x64 RTM.

davinleeds, I take it, it did not break the MC integration, right? Thx!

It looks like I was premature in blaming UltraMon for the problems.
Once again today Media Centre would crash each time I exited the TMT
component. Uninstalling UltraMon did not help. I've narrowed down my problem somewhat, and it seems to be pretty
specific to my configuration. I have an HDAV1.3 and it requires a video
signal input directly into it in order to be able to output audio over
HDMI. Unfortunately I can't use either of my main video card (8800GT)
outputs (one goes to the computer monitor via DVI and the other to the
TV via VGA), so I have a second video card (7600GT) whose sole purpose
is to feed video into the HDAV (just an empty desktop)
What I've found is that the problem with Media Centre crashing after
exiting TMT disappears when I disable that video output on the second
graphic card. Unfortunately that also turns off my sound, so it's not a
viable solution for me.
Having this additional video output on the second graphics card wasn't
a problem with TMT 120 or 140, but somehow seems to be with 160.

If you look at the crash details, would it happen to be ehTray.exe with an exception code of c000041d? Like this:
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: EhTray.exe
Application Version: 6.1.7600.16385
Application Timestamp: 4a5bd062
Fault Module Name: StackHash_554e
Fault Module Version: 0.0.0.0
Fault Module Timestamp: 00000000
Exception Code: c000041d
Exception Offset: 000000003f0912f8
OS Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1
Locale ID: 1033
Additional Information 1: 554e
Additional Information 2: 554e851313130fb959c4edb5c8032304
Additional Information 3: 595a
Additional Information 4: 595aabe67946b89e6690b2c1d64250f5
If so, I have the same problem. If not, let me know and I'll edit the details out of this post, no reason to start posting about problems that may not exist! It makes people worry

Well, mixed feelings with this patch
---- Still can't play 24HZ material with ATI drivers, there are freezes and parts of the image distorts at time, artifacts-- same as the older versions.
---- DTS-MA 7.1 seems to work now, at least with Forbidden Kingdom, i will try others later.
---- Something did happen with Vista MC, like others have reported something got broken with this update. When i try to close TMT3 plugin VMC crashes, it did not do that before. Couple other things happened, have to play with it bit more.
Jason, will arcsoft allow Reclock to work again with TMT3? chances of TMT3 ever working 100% with ATI drivers seem pretty slim and Reclock was the only way to get it to work.
